I usually do like movies by norman jewison. And i LOVE Goldie Hawn! this was just afterall her goofy films from the 1970s. the two mothers in law were the best part.. audra lindley ( mrs. roper!) and Jessica tandy, running the show. and neither richard nor paula ( Burt Reynolds & Goldie Hawn) will stand up to their own parents, making the other miserable. And Paula would probably be on anti-anxiety meds now. like Richard's father says, do ya love her? that's pretty much what it all boils down to. entertaining. some similarities to The Out of Towners. some clever scenes and turns of phrase. this is listed as a comedy, but i would consider it more of a romantic drama. fun to see a Goldie Hawn film that I had never seen before!
